It's worth a shot before removing your s/c. Think about it, it's a metal bolt. If your skeptic go pick one up at any wal mart or the parts store and try it on some of the other bolts. I keep one in my tool box at all times for just such an occasion $10 max.

PS: you have a '65 and a '66 for sale, drive one of them
